If One Photo Could Capture Essence Of Paralympics, This Is It

After U.S. swimmer Jessica Long won the women's 200-meter individual medley at the Paralympics in Rio, her teammate Mallory Weggemann wheeled over to give a congratulatory hug. Getty Images photographer Buda Mendes captured the moment, which includes Long's prosthetics.

This was Long's first gold medal in Rio after three silvers and two bronzes. In her Paralympic career, Long has 23 medals, including 13 golds.
